1 Corinthians 11
1 [Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
Muusyasye une mpela une inguti pakwasyasya Kilisito.
2 I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
Ngunlapa ŵanyamwe pakuŵa nkungumbuchila mu indu yose, mwanya nkamulisye majiganyo ilaila mpela inatite pakumpa.
3 [Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
Nambo ngusaka mmanyilile kuti Kilisito ali ntwe wa jwannume jwalijose, ni jwannume ali ntwe wa ŵankwakwe, ni Akunnungu ali ntwe wa Kilisito.
4 [So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
Jwannume jwali jose jwakuunichila ntwe katema pakupopela pane jwakulalichila utenga wa Akunnungu, akuujalusya ntwe wakwe ŵali Kilisito.
5 Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
Nambo jwankongwe jwalijose jwakupopela pane jwakulalichila utenga wa Akunnungu jwangaunichila ntwe akunjalusya ŵankwakwe jwali ntwe wakwe, jwankongwe jo ali chisau ni jwankongwe jwammyole umbo sya ntwe wakwe.
6 So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
Iŵaga jwankongwe ngakuliunichila ntwe wakwe mbaya amyole umbo syakwe, nambo iŵaga ili soni jwankongwe kuutula umbo syakwe pane kumyola mbaya aunichile ntwe wakwe.
7 Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
Jwannume ngakusachilwa kuunichila ntwe wakwe pakuŵa ŵelewo ali chisau ni Akunnungu ni ukulu wa Akunnungu. Nambo jwankongwe ali ukulu wa jwannume.
8 [Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
Pakuŵa jwannume nganagumbikwa kutyochela kwa jwankongwe nambo jwankongwe ni juŵagumbikwe kutyochele kwa jwannume.
9 Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
Sooni jwannume nganagumbikwa kwaligongo lya jwankongwe nambo jwankongwe ni juŵagumbikwe kwaligongo lya jwannume.
10 For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
Kwa ligongo li ni kwa ligongo lya achikatumetume ŵa Kwinani, jwankongwe aunichile ntwe ŵakwe, kuti chiŵe chimanyisyo cha ulamusi wauli pachanya pao.
11 However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
Natamuno yeleyo, nkulumbikana ni Ambuje, jwankongwe pangali jwannume ngaŵa chindu, ni jwannume pangali jwankongwe ngaŵa chindu, wose akukulupililana.
Pakuŵa, iŵaga jwankongwe ŵagumbikwe kutyochela kwa jwannume, iyoyo jwannume nombe akupagwa ni jwankongwe, ni indu yose yo ikutyochela kwa Akunnungu.
13 Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
Nlamule mwachinsyene. Ana ikuŵajilwa jwankongwe ŵapopele Akunnungu pangaunichila ntwe?
14 (Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
Ana upagwe usyene ngaukujiganya kuti jwannume aŵaga ni umbo syasileu akulitesya soni nsyene?
15 But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
Nambo jwankongwe akolaga umbo syasileu, chili chindu chakuchimbichikwa kukwakwe, pakuŵa atekupegwa umbo syasileu kuti syaunichile.
16 But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
Iŵaga mundu akukola makani kwa yeleyo, kukwetu uwe atamuno mu mipingo ja ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito, uweji nganitukola masyoŵelo ga makani.
17 Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
Nambo mmalajisyo ga gangumpa ngangunlapa, pakuŵa pankusimana kwapopela Akunnungu, nkutendekanya indu yangalumbana kwipunda indu yambone.
18 First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
Kundanda napilikene kuti, pankusimana pamo nti mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito, kukutyochela kulekangana, ni une ngukulupilila kanandi kuti pane ili isyene.
19 It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
Pakuŵa iŵele yambone kupagwe kulekangana pasikati jenu kuti aŵala ŵakukundikwa ni Akunnungu amanyiche pangasisika.
20 When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
Nipele pankusimana, nkuganisya kuti nkulya nkate kwa kuchikumbuchila chiwa cha Ambuje nambo ngaŵa,
21 But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
pakuŵa pankulya, kila mundu akulya chakulya pangaalindilila achinjakwe, ni kwatenda ŵane asigalile ni sala ni ŵane akolelwe.
22 ([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
Ana ngankukombola kulya ni kung'wa mmajumba genu? Pane ana nkuunyelusya mpingo wa ŵandu ŵakunkulupilila Kilisito ni kwachembulusya ŵandu ŵangali ni chindu? Ana sambano nansalile ichichi? Ana nanlape kwa yeleyo? Ngwamba, ngangunlapa kwaligongo lya chindu cho.
23 The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
Pakuŵa une napochele kutyochela kwa Ambuje majiganyo ganampele ŵanyamwe, yakuti, Ambuje Che Yesu, chilo chila paŵangalawiche, ŵaujigele nkate,
24 After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
ni paŵatogolele Akunnungu ŵaugaŵenye nkate ni kuti, “Achi ni chiilu changu chachityochekwe kwaliwamba lyenu. Ntendeje nyi kwakungumbuchila une.”
25 Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
Iyoyo paŵamasile kulya ŵachinyakwile chikombe ni kuti, “Achi chikombe chi chili lilangano lya sambano lyalikulimbichikwa kwa miasi jangu. Ntendeje nyi kila pankung'wa, kwakungumbuchila une.”
26 [Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
Pakuŵa kila pankulya nkate wu, ni kuching'welela chikombe chi, nkwenesya chiwa cha Ambuje mpaka pachaiche sooni.
27 So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
Kwapele kila mundu juchalye nkate wu ni kuching'welela chikombe chi kwa litala lyangasachilwa, jwelejo chakole magambo mchiilu ni mmiasi ja Ambuje.
28 Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
Kwapele kila mundu alilolechesye kaje nsyene nipele akukombola kulya nkate wo ni kuching'welela chikombe cho.
29 because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakulya ni kung'wa pangaimanyilila malumbo ga chiilu cha Ambuje, jwelejo akulilamula nsyene.
30 Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
Kwa ligongo lyo, ŵandu achajinji mŵa ŵanyamwe ali ŵakulepetala ni ŵakulwala, ni ŵane ŵakwe ajasiche.
31 If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
Nambo tukalilolechesye yambone twachinsyene, ngatukalamulikwe ni Akunnungu.
32 But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
Nambo patukulamulikwa ni Ambuje akutujamuka kuti tukasalamulwa pamo ni ŵandu ŵa pachilambo.
33 So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
Kwayele achalongo achinjangu pankusimana pamo kulya nkate kwa kuchikumbuchila chiwa cha Ambuje ndindililane.
34 Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
Naga mundu jakwete sala alye kaje kumusi, melepe pankusimana pamo Akunnungu akasanlamula. Indu ine yo chinjinjiganya pachiiche.
